Why West by North Consulting?
Before modern navigation equipment, mariners used compasses marked not with degrees but with thirty-two compass points - West by North is the equivalent of 281.25 degrees on a modern compass. With such equipment ancient mariners conquered the globe.
Together with experience in modern sailboat racing, we use this example as an inspiration and a model for all teams seeking a goal. Route setting and navigation. Weather and current impacts. Strategy and tactics. Performance tracking and optimization. Teamwork and communications. We can learn a lot from those who navigated unfamiliar waters.
